Quick evening round of the three hills here with my brother&comma; from a layby near the lake&period; Couldn't see a path up this one&comma; slogged up through heather and bracken from Mynnydd Bodafon&comma; another bash through undergrowth to escape down the track by the lake&period; Can imagine this would be very difficult when the plants are higher in the summer&period;

Continuation from Mynydd Bodafon&comma; this one a bit harder on the legs due to the gorse & lack of a path&period;&period;&period;

Not as easy as the other two- bit of a thrash from the track between it and Bodafan&period;

Challenged by GOML to SW&period; Used track from small car park to SE following outer edge of open access area to field to NE and FP&period; Climbed rocky outcrop from SH468853 - could be difficult in summer due to bracken and brambles&period;

Turned right from carpark and at the 2nd telegraph pole took obvious path left through dead bracken to reach rock and heather&period; Not too bad after that&comma; though we descended S from the top through a lot worse which would be impossible in summer&period;

Parked on the road to east of the pond then a bit of bracken bashing to get to the summit before sunset&period;

Missed the newish car park at SH 47022 85215 so parked on roadside verge at junction road&sol;track&period; Awkward access but eventually got onto the rock at SH 46982 85398&comma; after which an easy walk up to top&period; Crossed over to Pen y Castell as it looked higher - but clearly isn't&period; So why isn't the NE Top just called Pen y Castell and Pen y Castell called Pen y Castell SW Top&period; Things to ponder when unable to climb rocky little tops and wade through gorse and fern&excl;

Parked by track south east of lake &lpar;GR468853&rpar;to Mynydd Bodafon&comma; then easy descent followed by bracken&comma; heather and rock both to and from Pen y Castell NE Top &lpar;although not too bad at this time of year&comma; returning to car then Barclodia&period;

From E&comma; short bracken&sol;bramble 'moat' then easy going&period; On to W top &lpar;SH 46707 85232&colon; 169m on 1&colon;10k and does indeed look c&period;1m lower insitu&rpar; then S down track and back to car park&period;

On a tour of Sir Ynys Mon bumps&period; From P at SH470852&period; Traversed the ridge but at the col &lpar;SH467852&rpar; just below the highest point I was attacked by a gang of small bees - stung numerous times - managed to gain the top but couldn't linger&period;

Small car park just off the road at SH 47026 85235&period; Walked north up track to a telegraph pole at SH 46998 85394 then dived into the head high bracken &lpar;a late winter ascent would have been better&rpar;&period; Once through this there is waist high heather before reaching a section of bare rock&period; Another wallow through the bracken will take you to the summit rocky stuff&period; A large rounded slab of bare rock at SH 46822 85331 is the highest point which is actually just north of the tiny 170m contour ring&period;
